Many MANY drool-grade pieces in there..and some pure crap.
A genuine Mies van der Rohe steel table..... damn, what I wouldn't pay
for that...wait...I KNOW what I wouldn't pay for that..<G>
That Greene & Greene stuff looks great...and that Gustav Stickly piece
will certainly meet reserve...
I have the appreciation and desire... all I need is a few bucks.
Most of those pieces desereve a place by the side of the road on Monday
morning with the rest of the trash. by the way did george ever make a piece
worth a dam, like a maloof chair cannot figure where the arms are .....mjh

The Nakashima looks tempting, and almost affordable.
WTH is Charlotte Perriand, and why are those so expensive for ugly
simplistic stuff that looks like I knocked it up one evening to keep my
beer off the floor?
